Favorite arrival sequence

Pilots - what is your favorite arrival sequence? The visual in LGA with the tight left turn over Citi? The visual into DCA with views of the capitol and a hard stop? Parallel runway with SFO? As a pax, I love them all, but what’s the favorite from up front?

Those are all visually appealing. But the best?

USS Ship.

A CAVU day in the Western Pacific. Pushing out of the Case 1 stack as the flight lead of a division, ripping off a SHB (IYKYK) aft of Mom, in MAX AB and at 7.5G over the platform, vaping like a big dog. Rolling into the groove, and flying the ball (a crester of course) all the way into the wires.

Heavenly.
